Overseas general practitioners (GPs) and opioid prescriptions in England
The substantial recent rise in opioid prescription rates, along with increasing evidence of misuse and associated morbidity and mortality, raises serious concerns about the appropri- ateness of these drugs for pain management. This study investigates prescription behaviour differences across opioid drug categories between UK-trained and overseas-trained GPs. Us- ing panel data covering all English practices from 2018 to 2021, we find a strong ass…
Ethnicity and health at work during the Covid-19
This paper explores how health-work-related illnesses and injuries have changed during the COVID-19 pandemic for different ethnic groups and by gender. We find that not all groups were affected in the same way. While almost all men in all ethnic groups were on average less likely to work during the pandemic period, women were more likely to work. We also find that Mixed Ethnic and Pakistani women who reported a higher probability of working in th…
Bridging the pulse: Exploring inequalities in diabetes and hypertension medication prescriptions in Spain’s immigrant and native communities
Migrants often face barriers in accessing high quality healthcare, leading to unequal treatment. This research investigates the disparities in medication utilization for cardiovascular risk factors between immigrant and native-born populations in Spain. The study specifically examines differences in drug prescriptions for managing diabetes and hypertension, two key contributors to cardiovascular disease. We analyze administrative healthcare recor…
Another battle of the have-nots? the impact of immigration on the poverty risk of Western European natives
This paper explores the influence of immigration on the risk of poverty among native populations in Western European countries. Given that the risk of poverty can vary across nations due to factors such as labour market engagement and access to public programmes, it is hypothesised that immigration's impact operates through both the labour market and public finance channels. Using an aggregate panel dataset covering 16 Western European countries …
Contrasting and combining the historical counterfactual method and the synthetic control method
In recent years, many efforts have been made to bring quantitative and qualitative methods into dialogue. This article also moves in that direction. However, in contrast to most works, the present attempt does not concern the large-N/small-N issue but focuses instead on the sole single case study framework. Within this framework, two counterfactual methods, the historical counterfactual method, the qualitative one, and the synthetic control metho…
The impact of school exclusion in childhood on health and well-being outcomes in adulthood: Estimating causal effects using inverse probability of treatment weighting
BackgroundPrevious evidence has suggested a strong association between school exclusion and health outcomes. However, as health risks are themselves related to the risk of experiencing a school exclusion, it has been challenging to determine the extent to which school exclusion impacts later health outcomes, as opposed to reflecting a marker for pre-existing risks.AimThe aim of the current study was to address this challenge in estimating the med…
Studying informal care during the pandemic: Mental health, gender and job status
Unexpected negative health shocks such as COVID-19 put pressure on households to provide more care to relatives and friends. This study uses data from the UK Household Longitudinal Study to investigate the impact of informal caregiving on mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using a difference-in-differences analysis, we find that individuals who started providing care after the pandemic began reported more mental health issues than those …
Public Pension Generosity and Old-Age Poverty in OECD countries
Pension adequacy is gaining importance as old-age poverty remains a pressing problem. In many advanced welfare states, the population is ageing rapidly and recent pension reforms have led to cuts in public pension provision. There are, however, few comparative longitudinal studies on the relationship between pension generosity and old-age poverty. This study provides a comparative empirical assessment of how the prevalence and depth of old-age po…
Formal instruction vs informal exposure. What matters more for teenagers’ acquisition of English as a second language
This paper provides a comparative analysis of the drivers of English Language Competence (ELC) in a representative sample of European adolescents. School factors – such as English instruction time and English onset – are found to play an important role, especially in countries whose official languages are more distant from English. However, schools do not fully compensate for disparities in ELC. Gender, parental education and parental socioeconom…
Long-term labour market and economic consequences of school exclusions in England: Evidence from two counterfactual approaches
BackgroundPrevious research suggests that school exclusion during childhood is a precursor to social exclusion in adulthood. Past literature on the consequences of school exclusion is, however, scarce and mainly focused on short-term outcomes such as educational attainment, delinquency, and mental health in early adolescence. Moreover, this evidence is based primarily on descriptive and correlational analysis, whereas robust causal evidence is re…
Diverging mental health after Brexit: Evidence from a longitudinal survey
Middle and Below Living Standards: What Can We Learn from Beyond Income Measures of Economic Well-being?
This chapter complements the income-based measures of living standards on which earlier chapters have focused by incorporating non-income dimensions of economic well-being into its analysis, including indicators of material deprivation, economic burdens, and financial stress. It analyses how working-age households around and below the middle of the income distribution fared in European countries in the years before, during, and after the Great Re…
